🌿 Ayurvedic Hair Fall Control: Oils, Packs & Weekly Care Routine

Hair fall is one of the most common problems today—pollution, stress, wrong diet, harsh shampoo, hormonal imbalance and continuous heat styling weaken the hair roots. Ayurveda considers hair (Keshas) a by-product of healthy bone tissue (Asthi Dhatu). When digestion (Agni) weakens or the doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—get imbalanced, the scalp becomes dry, oily or inflamed, leading to hair fall.
